About FLTV

Fannie Lou TV is about serving the community at the same time it is helping us to improve ourselves. Our broadcasts are about the Bronx community and the world. Our newscasts give youth a chance to critically think about the issues and how they affect them. FLTV shows youth the news in the world through multiple viewpoints. FLTV gives students a chance to be creative with their work, to show their understanding and compassion for the community and the news. At the same time, it is helping them with public speaking and journalism skills. FLTV helps students feel confident and enthusiastic about their job. We are about making new segments that youth will enjoy giving their opinions about and will encourage them to willingly help solve an issue. This news broadcast is about encouraging students and youth to succeed and always have high expectations.
We dare to use innovative techniques to enhance the truth about the news through technology.
